Overview of RNU1C101MDSASQ – Conductive Polymer Aluminum Solid Electrolytic Capacitor, 100 µF, 16 V, Radial Lead
The RNU1C101MDSASQ is a conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor in a radial lead can, delivering 100 µF capacitance at 16 V with a ±20% tolerance. Engineered for general-purpose electronic designs, it combines high capacitance, low ESR and elevated ripple-current capability in a compact φ6.3×10 mm package with 2.5 mm lead spacing.
Key performance attributes include a wide operating temperature range of -55 °C to 105 °C and a 5000-hour endurance rating at 105 °C, making this part suitable for designs requiring stable, long-life bulk capacitance with controlled loss and leakage characteristics.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Rated Voltage — 100 µF nominal capacitance rated at 16 V with tolerance of -20% to +20%.
- Conductive Polymer Electrolyte — Solid polymer construction for reduced equivalent series resistance and improved ripple handling compared to liquid electrolytes.
- Low ESR — ESR of 25 mΩ measured at 20 °C/100 kHz, supporting low-loss performance at high frequencies.
- High Ripple Current — Rated ripple current of 282 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 2.82 A at 300 kHz (high frequency) for demanding ripple environments.
- Frequency-Grade Loss — tanδ (DF) of 0.08 measured at 20 °C/120 Hz for predictable dissipation characteristics.
- Leakage Current — Leakage current specified at 320 µA (measured per product conditions), supporting stable bias performance.
- Temperature & Endurance — Operating range −55 °C to 105 °C with a 5000-hour rated life at 105 °C.
- Radial Lead, Compact Form — φ6.3×10 mm can with 2.5 mm lead spacing and available in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing.
- Environmental Compliance — RoHS compliant.
Typical Applications
- General-purpose electronic circuits — Provides bulk capacitance and smoothing where a 100 µF/16 V solid polymer capacitor is required.
- High-frequency ripple management — Low ESR (25 mΩ at 100 kHz) and rated high-frequency ripple current (2.82 A at 300 kHz) support circuits with elevated switching activity.
- Thermally stressed environments — Suitable for designs operating across −55 °C to 105 °C and requiring long-term stability (5000 h at 105 °C).
Unique Advantages
- Compact high-capacitance solution — 100 µF in a φ6.3×10 mm radial can minimizes board footprint while delivering substantial bulk capacitance.
- Improved high-frequency performance — 25 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz and a low tanδ support efficient operation in high-frequency applications.
- Robust ripple handling — Specified ripple currents of 282 mA (120 Hz) and 2.82 A (300 kHz) enable reliable performance under both low- and high-frequency ripple conditions.
- Long thermal endurance — 5000-hour rated life at 105 °C offers predictable aging and lifecycle planning for thermally demanding designs.
- Application-flexible packaging — Available in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing to align with assembly and procurement preferences.
- Regulatory readiness — RoHS-compliant construction supports environmental requirements.
